The next major revolution in backgammon bots

18.8PR and 69% win rate against XG2 across 75,000 games wouldn't be a statistical fluke.

No, it shouldn't be. I am going to go out on a limb and say that something is fubared though. I have no idea what that is unless given all the data/information.

I can easily accept that backgammon isn't near 'solved' but to suggest that anything but making the 5pt with an opening 31 against a XG like opponent makes chocolate milk come out of my nose. I haven't had chocolate milk since I was 7. (ok, that's a lie, but trying to make a point here...the 5pt)

Would you back your bot against me in a money session right now?

Stick PS In fact our bot has the best play slotting the 5 and 4pt with a 3-1...that's illegal but I'm sure you meant to type something else that made sense.
